Curriculum

Our theme this term is 'Traditional Tales and Special Stories' 
 

Please take some time to read our curriculum newsletter for this term to find out more about what your child will be learning.

How to Support Your Child's Learning at Home

Your child will be given a colour banded reading book and a reading record. Please ensure that your child's books are brought into school each day as we will be listening to them read throughout the week. It is also important for them to read at home on a daily basis to consolidate and continue to develop their reading skills. Please write in your child's reading record when you have listened to them read at home. A short comment to let us know how they got on with the book would be useful. For example, you could comment on if they read fluently; if they used their sounds; what they found tricky; if they understood what they were reading. 

Your child will be also be given a set of flashcards to practise the sounds they are learning in school. Please practise these on a daily basis alongside their reading book.

Ideas for Home Learning relating to our Core Texts and Termly Theme will be provided to you in the EYFS Weekly Newsletter.
